Future
Plans
- An examination of the Holocene stratigraphy and paleoecology
of the site is currently underway as a graduate thesis project by Mischelle
Julien at Michigan State University. This study should include a pollen analyses
as well.
- Microvertebrate analysis of sediments taken from the site
will be conducted in collaboration with Karel Rogers of Grand Valley State
University.
- Following further bone reconstruction during the 2000-2001
years, a taphonomic analysis will be attempted examining bone destruction/preservation
and the spatial distribution. This will be done in consultation with Daniel
Fisher, University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology/
- Some further excavation of the area will take place in subsequent
years but currently no definite plans have been made concerning the details
of this phase.
